2 Maccabees 2:18

18 as He promised in the law, will shortly have mercy upon us and gather us together out of every land under heaven into the holy place; for He hath delivered us out of great troubles, and hath purified the place."

18 as He promised in the law, will shortly have mercy upon us and gather us together out of every land under heaven into the holy place; for He hath delivered us out of great troubles, and hath purified the place."
